Aside from that I plugged a non-used older SSD into my SATA/USB-adapter and put a btrfs-root onto it ... After some fiddling I currently run my system booted from that ;-) Yes, sure, slow because of the external SSD right now .. .just to see if it works. /home and stuff still on my internal disks, but the / now on a btrfs subvolume. Nice. I will play around with that and see what happens. Stefan
